Chapter 11

In the Hospital

Tim was sleeping in his room peacefully not knowing that someone was targeting him. Doctor Stephens was watching him quietly full of anger after knowing that he killed his best friend Ronald.

FLASHBACK

Doctor Stephens was walking towards the Cafeteria when he received a phone call from an unknown number

" Hello, who is this?" He inquired

"Good Evening Doctor Stephens, have you forgotten about me?"

"Lieutenant Owens? Why are you calling me?"

"You know what I want, kill Timothy McGee. Have you forgotten about that?"

"About that, I don't want to follow your evil plan, Tim is a good guy and he shouldn't die"

"You said Tim is a good guy? Clearly you haven't heard the news"

"What News?"

"Your best friend Ronald Dylan is dead. Apparently, he is killed by your so-called good guy Timothy McGee"

"Ro-Ronald i-is de-dead?" Doctor Stephens stutters not believing what he was being told

"Now you understand that it is a must that you kill Timothy McGee"

"I won't kill one of my patients"

"Think about it Stephens, wouldn't Ronald wants you to avenge his death?"

"Yes, he would want me to kill him and avenge his death. Just give me anything that I can use to kill Timothy McGee"

"I heard from his father that he is allergic to penicillin. I think you should give him a huge dose of penicillin. That probably spell his death"

"Consider it done Lieutenant Owens"

He hung up. Doctor Stephens was full of anger towards Tim and determined to avenge his best friend's death

FLASHBACK ENDS

Doctor Stephens was holding a bottle of Penicillin and thinking that he can finally avenge his best friend's death. He looked around to see if anyone was around and he silently entered Tim's room. Tim was lying on his bed peacefully and it irritated him

"How dare you kill Ronald and still sleep peacefully. I'll make you sleep forever"

He slowly fill the syringe with the Penicillin and started to insert it to the tube connected to Tim's body but a sudden knock stopped him before he could administer the lethal dose

"Excuse me, Is this Timothy McGee's room?"

He looked back and tried to act normal while the syringe is still inserted into the tube

"Yes, this is his room. Who am I speaking with?"

A man in a white sailor suit came in with a Lieutenant

"I am Admiral McGee. This boy's father, he is my son"

Doctor Stephens was too shocked for words as he knew the Admiral from his Naval Academy days

"Good Evening Admiral, your son's still resting and I recommend you to let him rest for a while"

"Can you wait outside Lieutenant?" Lieutenant Owens nodded and stepped outside

"How is his condition? Agent Gibbs told me that it was really serious"

"As you can see, he has severe bruises on his face and three broken ribs"

Admiral McGee only can watched his son lying on the bed. He was really worried for him. The talk with Gibbs really made him realized how much he cared for his son. He even skipped the important Naval Meeting to see his son.

"I should be going now, take care of my son. Alright Doctor? I forgot to ask your name"

"Stephens. Dr. Stephens"

"Good evening Dr. Stephens." Before he went out, he could see a bottle of penicillin lying behind the doctor's back. He kept silent and walked away

After the Admiral walked away, Doctor Stephens continued his wrong doing

Outside, the Admiral was walking towards the elevator but something bugged him. The bottle of Penicillin and the name of the Doctor. He was convinced that he heard the name somewhere. He finally remembered that he heard the name in the Naval Academy. He was supposed to be Ronald Dylan's best friend there. Then, he remembered that Ronald was found death in Tim's home. It was all over the news. Then everything came clear to him, Doctor Stephens was trying to kill his son with Penicillin because he wants to avenge Ronald's death.

"Oh, Man! Why am I so foolish" He ran back to Tim's room hoping that he wasn't too late. When he arrived at Tim's room, he could clearly see that the Doctor was injecting the Penicillin so he burst in

"Stop what you doing Doctor Stephens!"

The Doctor looked back in a shocked way and he almost finished the bottle of penicillin. He received a punch from the Admiral knocking him on the floor and unconscious. The Admiral rushed to Tim. He was praying that he wasn't too late.

"Tim! Can you hear me?" Tim didn't respond

"Please wake up Tim! I need you Tim. Please!" The Admiral started crying. Then the tension was added with the sound of the machine that was detecting Tim's heartbeat. It was a long screeching sound. The Admiral looked at the machine and watched in horror as his son's heart beat was dropping down.

"Tim, Please stay with me Tim. Please Tim! I am sorry that we haven't had a relationship for the past years but I have realize now I was wrong. Please give me a chance. Please! Anyone! Please help my son!"

Many Doctors came to Tim's room and he was put on a ventilator that was suppose to help Tim's breathing but it was not working. He once again was rushed to the ER and the Admiral was left watching his son fighting for his life

In NCIS Interrogation Room

Sam Cooper was sitting quietly in the room when he was shocked by someone bursting in

"Tell me who hired you!" Ziva screamed. Tony was running after Ziva

"Wait Ziva. Don't kill our suspect"

"I don't care Tony! He played a part in hurting Tim. He shall pay if he doesn't tell me who hired him!"

Pulling out a knife from the waistband of her pants, she stalked towards the frightened man

"I d-don't know who hired us" Sam looks terrified of Ziva

"Tell me who hired you. I won't say it again!"

"Just give her what she wants Sam if you value your life" Tony told him

"Why can't you guys understand? I don't know who hired us. We only received orders from a phone call." He threw the phone in front of them

"Now are you happy?"

Ziva just took the phone and stormed out of the Interrogation room with Tony following behind her.

In Abby's lab

Ziva and Tony rushed to Abby's Lab. There, they saw many pictures of Tim hanging in her lab.

"Wow, that's a lot of Tim pictures. You really missed him don't you."

"Yes, a lot Tony. I want to give him the warmest hug he will ever have"

"We need you to trace the call from this phone. It may lead us to who is trying to kill McGee" Ziva hands her the cell phone

"Sure, just give me a minute" She made some impressive work on tracing the call and within minutes she traced it.

"Okay, the caller is somewhere near… This can't be" Abby couldn't believe her eyes

"Where is the caller Abby?" Ziva and Tony insisted

'The caller is in…." Abby paused for a moment. "Bethesda Hospital"

Ziva and Tony was shocked. Tony quickly dialed the number of Ducky

"Come on Ducky, pick up"

Finally Ducky picked up his phone

"Anthony, this is a pleasant surprise"

"Ducky, where is Tim?"

Ducky paused for a while

"Come on Duck, where is he?"

"What happened Tony? Put Ducky on speaker! Now!" Ziva screamed at Tony. Tony did as she asked

"Come on Ducky, Tell us. Where is Tim?" Its Ziva turned to ask him

"Oh, Ziva. Its you. And I assume Abigail is with you right?"

"She is here Ducky. Tell us" Tony insisted

"Timothy just got in the ER again an hour ago. He was apparently poisoned with penicillin. His heart rate was really low. I was only been gone for an hour and this thing happened"

All three of them couldn't believe their ears especially Abby who was about to start crying but she ahold herself.

"It's not your fault Ducky. Who found him?"

"It's the Admiral, he visited him. I got to go. I'll inform all of you when he came out"

"Thank you Ducky" Tony hung up. The three of them was slightly surprised that the Admiral visited Tim.
